There are three ways to locate particular configuration options:
you can use the search function, or display the whole list, or use
the available service perspectives (E-Line, E-LAN, IP).
Searching
To search for a specific configuration option:
- Click the magnifying glass icon.
The search term bar appears.
- Enter your search term.
As soon as you enter the first two letters, the bar opens downwards,
displaying the search results.
Search displays only the first ten matches for your term .
Tip: Search results appear while you are typing. You can continue
typing or even delete text. Note that the cursor might not be visible
in the search field if the focus is somewhere within the list of search
results.
The order of the search results is not dependent on the order
of those items in the Available Configuration panel. It
is based on the similarity of your search term to indexed fields.
- While the result list is still visible, select a result
by:
Using the mouse to click on it.
Pressing the Enter key to select the first result in the
list.
Using the up and down arrow keys on the keyboard to move
through the list, pressing the Enter key to select a result.
The tree in the Available Configuration panel jumps
to the location of the match for the result you selected and highlights
the option. The list of results disappears.

to the selected result.

to the selected result.

- To close the search bar, click the X in the top right
corner of the bar.
